Connecting an Oxygen Cylinder
To connect an oxygen cylinder to the unit, use the op-
tional pressure reducing regulator.

Using the Oxygen Monitor
Before using the incubator, check the oxygen sensor for any sign of degradation or leakage,
and replace it immediately if any cracks are found on the surfaces.
The oxygen sensor is a sealed unit that contains potassium hydroxide electrolyte. The electro-
lyte may leak out if the sensor is damaged when dropped, etc. If contact with the skin or cloth-
ing occurs, wash the area using large amounts of water. In case of eye contact, flush eyes im-
mediately using large amounts of water and consult a doctor.
Calibrate the oxygen monitor before each use.
Be sure to perform the 21% calibration (calibration of the oxygen sensor to room air) when ox-
ygen is not in use before using the unit for a new patient (before disinfection). If the 21% cali-
bration is performed while oxygen is being supplied to the incubator or after it is supplied to it,
oxygen inside the hood will leak and may affect the calibration.

Calibrating the Oxygen Monitor
(1) Insert the oxygen sensor module plug into the oxy-
gen sensor connection port on the left side of the
main body.
